Oak

Oak. The king of the forest.

Oak wood has a density of about 0.75 g/cm3, great strength and hardness, and is very resistant to insect and fungal attack because of its high tannin content.

Oak wood was used in Europe for the construction of ships, especially naval men of war, until the 19th century. It is the principal timber used in the construction of timber-framed buildings. Oak wood is commonly used for furniture, flooring and for production of veneer and barrels.

As sawn timber oak is offered in different classes, in different forms, unedged or edged, either fresh, air dried or kiln dried. Thicknesses produced vary from 20mm to even 100mm, with random widths. We can also produce fix widths and sorted to size against specific orders.
